I grew up in Portland with three brothers. I love sports, especially basketball, the beach and the rain.

I am the Director of Student Affairs Operations & Strategic Initiatives. I graduated from Pacific University with a double major in Psychology and Social Work and have worked in the Student Affairs Office for over 31 years.

I am an advocate for people to make decisions that are best for them and to support them in whatever way they determine is right for them.

Outside of my role at Pacific, I enjoy spending time with my boys, cuddling my dogs, and spending time with family and friends.
